Did you know: From 1986 till 1996 Graf won at least seven tournaments every year.

Centre Court highlight: Graf's first Wimbledon title in 1988 is loaded with significance. Having lost the final the year before to the legendary Martina Navratilova, the 19-year-old reversed the result to confirm she was the new queen of women's tennis. Her 5-7, 6-2, 6-1 win was her first Wimbledon singles title. Graf battled hard for her win after losing the first set and finding herself 2-0 down in the second. In the last 13 games, Navratilova, a nine times Wimbledon singles title winner, scored just 23 points. "She's the fastest player I've met,'' Navratilova said later. "She's got incredible spring in her legs and is so quick off the mark. She's a super player and a nice human being. If you have to lose, you might as well lose to the better player on the final day and pass the torch." The win was part of an unforgettable season for Graf in which she completed the Grand Slam of all majors plus won the Olympic gold medal.

She says: "There is no tennis venue more special to me than Centre Court at Wimbledon. It just doesn't get any better. I couldn't be more honoured to play there again with my husband Andre, and tennis greats Kim and Tim. It will mean so much to return to Wimbledon and see so many familiar places, relive so many wonderful memories."

Graf graced the tennis courts, and built a career that spanned 17 years and 902 victories. She announced her retirement from tennis in 1999. Graf won 22 Grand Slam singles titles (seven at Wimbledon, six at the French Open, five at the US Open and four at the Australian Open). In 1988, Graf won all four Grand Slam singles titles, the Olympic gold medal and 96 percent of her matches. Graf was ranked No.1 for a WTA-record 377 weeks, including 186 in a row. Stefanie Graf is the founder of Children for Tomorrow, a non-profit organization focused on helping children and their families who are victims of war, persecution or organized crime. Graf is married to Andre Agassi, and the couple have two children.
